Hey OCR. I'm posting this thread because my friend and I need your help to develop and patent a new type of armor. My friend Bryan here at UCI (University of California Irvine) to develop a new form of armor that is much stronger and lighter than anything available now. Plus, it is much more environmentally friendly to fabricate. We have more information at our website: http://www.boroshield.org
So why do we need your help? Well, he is submitting his business plan to a contest that, if won, will provide him with the necessary money to patent his design, which will protect his idea. Then he can seek venture capital to begin research, development, and production of the design.
This contest works by popular vote, similar to Ourstage but without the nifty matchups. Go to http://www.boroshield.org click on the green "VOTE" button with the thumbs up on the right side, and go through the simple process. You can skip giving them your personal information, but make the password REALLY easy to remember (more on that in a second).
The only hard part is you have to verify your e-mail address by clicking on a link they e-mail you. The whole process will take maximum 5 minutes; we promise they won't spam you or anything.
We're going to ask you to vote one more time in the last week of this month, so remember your password for the future. (Make it like 'boroshield123' or something).
Vote now because the contest is over in just a little over a week on the 30th.
Winning this contest will open up HUGE possibilities. Everybody will benefit from Bryan's technology.
If you find this cause as worthy as I do, pass this along to your friends after you vote. We would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks a ton guys! And pass this on if you find it worthy!
